Project N95

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Project N95 is a nonprofit organization which runs a website devoted to the sale of N95 masks and COVID-19 tests.[1] The website functions as a PPE clearinghouse, connecting buyers directly to manufacturers.[2]

It was founded by Anne Miller. Her mother-in-law was among the first residents of the state of Vermont to die of COVID-19.[3] The nonprofit sold N95 masks for about $1 each.[4] In December 2023, the organization announced it would stop selling masks that month and end operations due to insufficient revenue from donations and sales.[5]
